Up, Up, and Away!

I might be getting old, but I find very little cool about the idea of Virgin Galactic. I do think it would be cool to get into space. I just want it to be real space travel. I am not really into the idea of flying into space to just hang out and coming back down. I want to go into space so I can make my way to Mars. I doubt that will happen in my lifetime. What I really want is for mankind to travel to other stars. I doubt that would happen before we would kill ourselves off.
